Tregg Cronin DTN Contributing Analyst Pre-6 a.m. Globex Prices: December corn is up 2 3/4 cents per bushel, November soybeans are up 1/2 cent, and December KC wheat is up 3 1/4 cents. CME Globex Recap: Equity markets were mostly weaker overnight with U.S. futures holding steady after the sharp sell-off Monday. Coronavirus cases continue to rise in Europe and the United States, making new lockdown measures more of a threat than seemed possible at the end of summer. In addition, it looks unlikely another stimulus package will be made available before the U.S. election a week from Tuesday. Pushing additional relief beyond the election subjects additional aid to the uncertainty of a close election. Energy markets were firmer overnight, although crude oil still sits below $40.00 per barrel. Crude oil at $40.00, plus or minus a couple of dollars, feels like it could be the new normal for the foreseeable future. The U.S. Dollar Index is slightly weaker while precious metals are mixed. Grain markets are higher across the board, shaking early losses at the overnight open. Corn futures are making new highs for the move, keeping momentum studies pointed higher and bulls firmly in control.
